Obama / Auto Bailout -- the new quid pro quo

[read the Olympian article here]
I hope all of the auto manufacturers reject Obama's bailout money and if needed declare bankruptcy. Once the debt is reduced, private investors will come in and purchase the real market value of your company. Your company won't continue with the vision that you had in mind, but it will continue with a vision of prosperity, not of Obama's vision of socialism.
The instant that you accept the money from the United States Government, you have sealed your fate of predestined failure -- and worse you have sealed America's fate of having to subsidize your industry forever.
Governments shouldn't be involved in the private sector. Perhaps if the bailout came with no strings attached, such as a low- or no-interest loan, then I could go along with the idea. However, there are strings attached and that string is an anchor that will forever plague your companies.
The strings are that the government will tell you what to do, how to run your company. It's not enough that they regulate and tax you to bankruptcy, now they want to extend you credit and own you. Bankruptcy is a preferred alternative.
Obama keeps saying that he doesn't want to run the automobile industry, but he has already fired Rick Wagoner, former CEO of GM and he is touting that your companies haven't embraced the alternative energy and is not moving fast enough. President Obama said, "our auto industry is not moving in the right direction fast enough to succeed". Read: I'm going to start telling you what to do.

WA State - Dem's Propose Budget

[read the Olympian article here]
The state budget has been released by the Dems up on the hill, and you guessed it, doom and gloom with the need for a TAX INCREASE.
While families all over the state are cutting back, your state government wants to increase their total spending. The state budget proposed will spend more money in the next two years than the last two. How many of you are able to spend more now? I bet you are really finding ways to cut back. Government needs to do the same.
The budget comes with the same tired scare techniques. The legislators are warning that they will have to cut funding from public schools, higher education, health care, elder care and disabled, corrections, the environment, and they will even have to scrap two planes owned by the WA State Patrol.
And this is what government is doing, so it is only fair that we increase your car tabs by $5.00.
I have a terrible memory, but I remember when the people of WA told the state that we were tired of being taxed on car tabs and reduced the fee to $30.00. And remember all the doomsday talk at the time? Legislators warned us that police, fire, education would all be non-existent. Guess what? We survived.
I would like to see government do their best impression of Lehman Brothers. Put all of your belongings in a box and go look for another job, please. The people of Washington state will get along just fine without you. We don't need a nanny, and if we did we wouldn't hire you.

Thurston Commissioners and Sheriff Duel

The latest article in the Olympian says:

The union representing Thurston County’s deputy sheriffs said today that it will
sue the county if commissioners follow through with proposed budget cuts in the
department. [and] The letter represents the latest salvo in the deepening rift
between county leaders and the sheriff’s office.

This will come to no surprise to those of you that have read my blog in the past. Sandra Romero has complete disdain for police since her DUI arrest [read my prior blog post here]. But possibly even more interesting is just about everyone in the Thurston County Courthouse endorsed her opponent in the last election [read my prior post here].
I'm not surprised that Romero is working to dismantle the Sheriff's office. But I have to ask: What office is she going to attack next?
Here is some more background on Romero, she is a board member of an environmental activist group called Futurewise. Yep, I've written about that one too [read my prior blog post here]. What is really interesting about this is that the lawsuit that Futurewise put to the County now represents about 25% of the budget shortfall. Let's connect the dots, Sandra Romero is a board member of Futurewise, and the county needs to make cuts; I don't think that the cuts will involve anything to do with protecting the environment. Do you? Goodbye public safety.

Obama gives investment advice

In case you didn't know, Obama's advice is to buy more stock now -- it is at such a good price. Is this perhaps a ploy to try and stimulate the market, and then take credit for stocks rising? Anyway, had you bought on his advice you would be about 3% poorer now. You would be a little bit closer to relying on the government to bail you out. Either way, Obama wins.

Stock Market down 20% since Obama took office

The stock market has fallen over 20% since Obama has taken office. Clearly wall street has not responded well to President Obama's capitalist-snuffing policies. Every president wants to take credit for a good economy, but President Obama does not want to associate the stock market's indication that his policies will fail.

Chris Matthews does not respect our 'System'

Chris Matthews says that he thinks Obama will fail because of our system, and that America needs to respect a Democracy, a simple majority. Chris Matthews needs a lesson in our government and should understand why our framers made our form or government a republic. See his comments below and then the video about governments.
